Who we share your data with

We work with Google to provide us Analytics. This is to allow us to understand an aggregated view of the pages being visited on the site and from where in the world users are visiting and for how long. The data that is passed to Google includes IP address. They process this data to provide the services and aggregate the data together so it’s not able to be linked back to an individual.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. fonts, videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

How long we retain your data

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where we send your data

Visitor comments (if any) may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

Additional information

How we protect your data

Where possible we try to store as limited amount of information on users as possible. If you contact us, your email will be stored in our email account. We work with Google Mail to provide our emails. They are dedicated to protecting data. You can read their privacy policy here https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US.

For users that may have registered on the website, we work with an industry leading platform called WordPress to store the user data.
